I know that I tried to keep this a tight-lipped secret until the day she arrived, but the resistance to temptation of releasing the news earlier than planned was so weak that I must spill the beans now.

Yes, since this is the 1PC forum, my "new" doll is a 1PC. I bought her from Starion Friday morning. Transaction went smooth without any problems. (And it also pays to know that I found out that I had something to make it go as smooth as it did, but at first I didn't realize that I had it... :roll:)

By looking at the picture in his album of his, soon to be my, doll, I had tried to make out (the best that I can) that the doll is an Angie head with either a Nicole or Natalie body. (The latter I couldn't tell right off.) But I could be wrong about the head FWIW.

So, for what it's worth, this is my first solid silicone doll. And I couldn't have been happier.

But, Kat and I have already picked out a name for the doll, and the name of the doll is Nicole Dyan Wilkinson, with the nickname of Nicki. (Please keithallen, don't get mad at me for that choice!) And Kat and I had already started picking out (but not buying yet) clothes for her and also started to call her Nicki instead of her "legal" name, Nicole, already, and she hadn't even arrived yet! :oops: Oh, and before anyone wonders, Kat had picked out the first and middle names. The last name was my choosing.

So, Starion would ship her out come Monday morning. I would be getting a tracking number soon thereafter when he ships it. You bet your asses that I would be faithfully be checking the tracking once every couple of hours so I would be ready and willing to accept Nicki home.

So, I know many people in chat have been encouraging me that sooner or later that an opportunity would come on by, and when it does, snatch it up, and keep a lookout "like a hawk" on the For Sale forum for a doll that would meet my price expectations. To put it, Starion basically was holding a "marriage sale," meaning his wife didn't like his doll collection and was wanting to get rid of it ASAP at whatever loss he can take.

So, I know that owning a silicone doll, any kind, has a steep learning curve and I'm willing to take it. Right now, I'm just happy that I'm getting one, after a bunch of hardship already taken for so long, now it seems like my luck and fortune have changed.

Cheers!

CGM, Kathryn, Daphne and Nicole

Congrats - I look forward to your review. I have been thinking about getting a 1st-PC doll and just want a few more reviews before I make up my mind.

Do me a favor, buy a 1st-PC Sonia doll in addition to the doll you are already getting. I would like to get some feedback about her, too.

CGB...

Congratulations!

I know you've been wanting a siicone doll for a long time and now finally you'll be getting one. What they say is true: "Success is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."

I'm impressed with the 1st-PC dolls because of their light weight. In fact, I sort of consider them as the forunners of the soon coming Ultra Lite Dolls that I am convinced will dominate the doll scene in the next few years.

Good luck with your doll....

Congrats CGB!!!!

1PC's are light and fun, and you will not find better feeling boobs or butt on ANY other doll 8)
I will also say that 1PC's do require careful upkeep. Handle her carefully, like the fragile thing she is and inspect her often. - which should be a fun chore 8) . Also, do not leave her where she will recieve alot of direct sunlight, this hastens sagging of her soft parts, probably due to the warming. In other words, keep her cool until you are ready to play.

I will be more than happy to give you advice & assistance on any repairs you need to perform.

Hi Casperghostboy,

A silicone doll may open a new world for you.
When warmed up it feels close to how a real body feels.
I agree on Keithallen handle her carefully!
I've no experience with 1st PC's but know from TDF that the breast and butt which are very soft are difficult to keep in shape.
Is very soft and stretchy e.g. lycra suport bra an idea?

Congrats CGB!

I'm glad to see this. I know you have been waiting a long time and that this is very important to you.

Most of all, it's good to see you get a break, at last. Maybe the better times are here at last for you. :)

Casperghostboy...It is almost as rewarding when someone else gets a doll of their dreams. Good luck and may your wait be short for your doll and your pleasure be long.

To wondering, technoguy, HawgCallr, keithallen, mytime (and Helen), fixitman, Musician, PHLover and raysmod:

Thanks! You are all too kind. :D

In fact, I'm glad that Nicki is coming home. At least Daphne would have someone to talk to in the event that Kat and I are out of the house (which does happen quite often; but I'm afraid that Daphne would get Nicki hooked on QVC :roll:), but at least Daphne would have a doll-friend, because Kat and I are already Daphne's human friends...

wondering (and some others looking to buy a 1PC), rest assured that I will have a review (and pictures) in due time. I don't want to let my friends on TDF down.

keithallen, thanks for the insight. And don't worry, you would be the first I'd turn to for repairs and maintenance. I would also like to know, like mytime, if a Lycra support bra (of course, no underwires) would be fine, and if so, what size. But I'd still like to know if you're alright with the name Nicki, because your 1PC is named Nicky. Even though, my Nicki's "legal" name is Nicole, but still, if you're alright with it or not, I'd like to know. (Not that you'd mind or care, but I still like to know if you're okay with it and such... after all, your Nicky has been most of the inspiration for my Nicki...)

And to the rest who congratulated me, yes, it seemed like I finally got a break after all what my own family had done to me in the past. As a matter of fact, I found a few spreadsheets I done way back when about how to painstakingly save up for a 1PC back when I was working low-paying jobs, but still, even though that I had tried to convince people in my family to let me at least start simple savings, they'd say yeah you can, but when it came time to actually attempt starting the account (one that I basically couldn't touch), they'd contradict themselves and take advantage of me and as an effect, they'd make me pay their mistakes and leave me with only $50 to $100 for the entire month and tell me a yarn about why they did it, etc... It's all behind me now.

And to raysmod, the wait will be short for me. In fact, he's halfway across the country (I'm on the US East Coast, he's in the US Midwest), and since he's shipping her FedEx, I can be assured that I'll get Nicki by either Wednesday or Thursday, so my wait would be very short. And I'm damn sure that my pleasure would be long.

I basically adopted a doll back in 2007 (Daphne) that many people said that wouldn't last all that long because she is a prototype and maybe give me about maybe eight months to a year of pleasure... she's been going on for almost twice that long. I know how to take care of my dolls. Nicki basically was a totally rebuilt doll (look in Starion's album "1st PC Project Doll (Trinity Rose Starr)" and you'll find out what I mean), so I know to take extra care of her. And why, also.

Well, I will post more if time allows, but now How It's Made is on the Science Channel right now and it's the only thing on TV now. And also, I've gotta contemplate some tracks in my MP3 collection for a Homecoming CD.

Take care!

CGM, Kathryn, Daphne and Nicole

I'm bumping up this topic because I feel like I have something important to say about Nicki.

If you did search Starion's album about the 1PC that he had, she was in very terrible condition. I did see that she was all patched up and completed, but now I know to take careful attention to her.

One person in chat last night (it's Monday morning--the day Starion ships her to my place--as I write this), doodman, was quite concerned that I would have one helluva fixer-upper once she arrives at my place. I know you get what you pay for, but if doodman's convictions are right, please rest assured that I would have doodman called up in Skype asking for whatever help I can get, plus I would be exchanging calls (Skype, or on my cell phone--I don't have long distance on my home phone), emails and PM's between me and Keithallen (and also the latter two with doodman).

I'm hoping for the best, because many others probably did also see what I saw: that Nicki (Trinity, as Starion called her) was completed and such. I was also PM'd by Starion himself that this Saturday when after I PayPal'ed him the funds is that he bought a very large box (longer than it is wide) to hold my doll in for shipping.

So, Starion, if you are reading this, do not be taken aback, I still want the doll, it was just the concern of one other member that probably wasn't filled in with the details. I look forward receiving my new doll (well, new to me that is) and giving her a loving home with my RSSD Daphne, because she's been wanting a doll friend to talk to (and possibly get her hooked on QVC like Kat had) while Kat and I are gone for a while. She will get nice clothes from Kat and I... and I bet Nicki (what I'm going to call her) will have a nice Christmas this coming December (even though it's 10 months away), and other holidays.

Cheers!

CGM, Kathryn, Daphne and Nicki (aka Nicole)

Hi Casper, this is Nicky. I am honored that you named your doll after me :D (forget what KA thinks, it's us dolls that matter :wink: )
About bras, try to find a bra with NO underwires. A sports bra works great, and so do the soft ones that hook in the front. (I HATE the rear- clasping bras, I let Tabitha have those) Also, white is not the sexiest color, but it is good if Nicki is going to be wearing her bra for a long period of time.
Be sure to take pics of Nicki after she arrives, I love seeing my sister dollies!

I'm very happy for you CGM. Welcome to the used silicone doll club. It can be very trying at times to do the repairs, but in the end, I think its more than worth the effort in most cases. I still haven't been able to use any of my three remaining silicone dolls yet. Seriously doing repairs as of the last two weeks. My biggest challenge is finding a loose powder to match the tan skin tone of a pre-2003 B5. Ive gone through 7 different shades of Covergirl powder and still came out either just too light or just too dark. It looks like I will have to mix some of the shades to get the right one (and seem to really suck at matching these powder colors to her skin.) The only other main problem is fixing the VERY soft breasts that have ripped at the base underneath the breasts. My B2 with fair skin was coming along nicely but the catalyst got cloudy on me so I just ordered some more to finish the job. She is in bad shape, as she was ripped apart at the waist. Reconstructed by Slade, but not very well I'm afraid, which is why I only paid about 2,000 for her. Sounds like a lot but was very fair considering the fixes are minor (wrong silicone color in some repair spots, tears, lumps, etc...) The worst thing on her is the hands. That will take some considerable skill to fix properly (which I am learning by trial and error.) Finally, my 1st PC Natalie needs a new butt. The old one had come apart in the middle where the cheeks meet and it became a huge 'unibutt' when I filled it with gel. I'm doing a total butt reconstruction on her (butt re-create actually) and I will also try a new idea to prevent the gel leaks. I expect to see some posts like this from you when you get yours as well. Soon I expect you will be enjoying your accquisition and sharing with us here as usual. I wouldn't be surprised if you finish up repairs before I finish with my girls. :D
